Snell & Wilcox 4:3 Pattern 1: Sony DVP-NS50P -> Panasonic DMR-ES15 -> Diamond VC500
It looks virtually identical to the performance of the DMR-ES10, unsurprisingly.
For quick comparison:
V1 = AVISource("Comb Filter - Panasonic DMR-ES10.avi").AssumeTFF().Bob()
V2 = AVISource("Comb Filter - Panasonic DMR-ES15 to Diamond VC500 [128-128-128-140-0].avi").CropPad(8,0,0,0).Trim(0,30).AssumeTFF().Bob()
Interleave(V1,V2).Histogram()
function CropPad(clip c, int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2, int "color") {
color = Default(color,color_white)
c.Crop(x1,y1,-x2,-y2).AddBorders(x2,y2,x1,y1,color)
}
Meanwhile, I've tried two different DVD players as source, and with both I get a 15-frame cycle of partial rainbowing on the second Snell & Wilcox pattern. The Sony comes out considerably worse than the other one.
